Abstract (en)

A direct-current power supply circuit for gas discharge lamps includes a rectifier-capacitor bridge having a pair of input terminals and a pair of output terminals. A series input inductor is connected to one of the input terminals of the rectifier-capacitor bridge, and a pair of feedback diodes is connected to the output terminals of the rectifier bridge to provide a feedback signal to the series input inductor to control ripple of d-c output from said bridge and power factor of the a-c input to said bridge.
